Return Of The Living Dead Invasion Of The Body Snatchers '78 on Blu-Ray - Page 3

OMG Troll 2? They can't release something like Blow Out or Dressed to Kill, but they choose to release fuckin Troll 2? Does this give hope for The Burning and From Beyond? Those 2 are the ones I'd really love to see, not fuckin Troll 2. Jesus Christ.

What kind of world do we live in when we can get Troll 2 on blu-ray before Jaws?

Is this a sign that the Apocalypse is upon us?

hopefully we will be seeing some reviews for this very soon

also on bestbuy's website it says check stores meaning that all best buy stores should be carrying this on the release date unlike evil dead blu-ray which says not available

Received them both today, Both look as they should, Pretty grainy with plenty of depth. No DNR as far as I can see. All the extras are on the Blu disc as well as the DVD this time which is much better. Stupid eco cases though with the big sections cut out, Boo.

Just finished watching ROTLD, Timeless. Great Transfer on this. Don't think anything has been done to it since the 2007 DVD, Just translates well to Blu-Ray. Plenty of colour pop and fine detail. Off to listen to the Audio comm in a bit, Never got around to it on the DVD. RIP Dan O'Bannon.

I presume the soundtrack is still the altered one?

fceurich39 · 09-09-2010, 04:15 AM

altered or not it doesnt really bother me compared to the sequel

dickieduvet · 09-09-2010, 03:54 PM

Yeah, The zombies voices have been altered too, Noticed as soon as I heard Tar-Man.

Darga · 09-09-2010, 05:18 PM

Are the new Return of the Living Dead and Mad Max releases going to have all the same extras as the earlier editions? Anything new?

I'm not looking forward to double-dipping too much, but these are two favorites that I can't resist upgrading to Blu ray.

exact same as the 2007 special edition from what i heard

Don't think MGM have got the money to produce new features, Think that's why they're getting alot of the cult classics out on Blu-Ray at the moment, For the cash.

DVDBeaver has a review up of the Invasion of the Body Snatchers blu-ray. Seems like they included all the featurettes from the SE DVD onto the blu-ray disc in HD. However, MGM's laziness comes through ONCE AGAIN by them NOT including the Philip Kaufman commentary from the original DVD release. It's there, sure, but on the DVD included with the package (the old, non-anamorphic DVD from like 1997). Was it too much to ask to just add the commentary track to the blu-ray release? Fuck, I hate having to watch decade-old transfers just to hear the bloody commentary track (this is one I never got around to listening to).
